	Resolution authorizing the State Librarian to procure for the State of Maryland, certain works therein mentioned. WHEREAS, it has been ascertained by means of cer- tain extracts, which have been taken from documents relating to the first settlement and early history of the Province of Maryland, which now remain among the archives of the Jesuits at Rome, that an interest- ing and authentic Narrative, or History of Maryland, composed in Latin by Father Andrew White, the first Missioner to Maryland, and fellow voyager with Leon- ard Calvert, in M. S. is easily accessable, and that a copy of the same may be procured at a comparatively small expense, and it has heretofore been deemed high- ly important, as it is interesting to the patriotic citizens of this State to obtain correct information of their origin, and the progress of their ancestors to the en- joyment of a firm and stable government, and it is pro- per therefore, that all authentic material for history should be placed within their reach.
